Cost efficiency

Installing Solar Gard window film on your existing windows costs a fraction of replacing them, making it one of the most cost-effective ways to reduce energy consumption and increase the comfort inside your home. On average, installing window film is four times less costly than installing new windows.

Carbon costs

The carbon cost of one square meter of Solar Gard window film is less than ten kilograms. By comparison, a low-e wood frame window has a carbon cost of approximately 444 kilograms per square meter.

Greenhouse gas emissions

According to independently verified research, Solar Gard window films save 100 times more greenhouse gas emissions from entering the atmosphere than are used or created during their manufacture.

Tax credits and utility rebates

The global trend toward a decrease in greenhouse gas emissions has led to numerous incentives for buildings to increase their energy efficiency. In many cases, buildings that make energy efficiency improvements, including upgrades with Solar Gard window film, may be eligible for tax credits and utility rebates.

UV protection

Solar Gard window films filter visible light and block more than 99% of the harmful ultraviolet (UV) light associated with premature aging and skin cancer. With an SPF of 285+, window film can also protect furnishings, carpets and more from fading and damage due to UV exposure.

As a home or business owner, you want to make smart choices to save energy, help the environment and preserve precious resources. These days it’s easy to find home improvement products that call themselves green, but it’s hard to decipher one environmental claim from another.

How can you be sure a product will really save you energy?

When you decrease your energy use, you are reducing your greenhouse gas emissions – and your carbon footprint. Solar Gard solar control films for your home are the first window films verified to be carbon negative, saving more energy when they are installed than it takes to produce them.

As a manufacturer of an energy-saving product, making good choices that help the environment is our responsibility. Our investment in verifying the carbon impact of our films is just one part of our mission to produce environmentally conscious products you can be proud to buy.

For decades, Solar Gard has been dedicated to the ongoing process of reducing the ecological footprint of its products and production processes. The first window film manufacturer to measure and report the carbon impact of its products through a Environmental Product Declaration, Solar Gard includes a commitment to environmentally responsible manufacturing in its Environmental Health and Safety Policy.
